Facts:

This can only be answered on a case-by-case basis. There are a few factors when determining this statement. First, consider the ingredients used in the formulation. It should be tested and labeled “non-comedogenic,” which means it has been tested on humans and did not cause comedones or breakouts. Non-chemical sunscreens are better for sensitive skin, as chemical sunscreens can be irritating to sensitive skin and work differently than physical sunscreens. Physical sunscreens can be water-resistant and add to the “staying power” of the sunscreen. With that being said, they must be intentionally cleansed from the skin to avoid problems. Sunscreen can clog pores if used improperly or not cleansed thoroughly from the skin after use.
